Michael Murphy has been nominated for the GAA.ie Player of the Week after the win over Mayo.

The Glenswilly man was hugely involved for his side, setting up a number of scores, while also kicking five points of his own.

His input helped the side to a one point win over their Connacht opponents as Donegal finished second in the group, where they have been rewarded with a home preliminary quarter-final against Louth.
